Library special collection

This collection was donated by Ed and Shirley Cheramy of Jackson, Wyoming in 2008. It is split between the Toppan Library of the American Heritage Center and Special Collections. The collection includes published works (books, articles, and government publications) that detail American Indian history from the 19th and 20th centuries. Much of the collection re-lates to the history of the Plains Indians, with a strong focus on the Cheyenne and Arapaho tribes.
